Helen furrowed her brows and growled, “Sasha, you should know when to stop your tantrum! What’re
you trying to achieve since we’re a family? Isn’t demanding Liam to kneel down and offer kowtows too
humiliating for him?! Will you only be pleased to see our family be broken apart?!”
Sasha went fuming when she heard her mother. “Am I trying to break this family apart? I’m just trying to
reason with y’all! Why is he allowed to avoid the responsibility after losing the bet while I would have to
honor my words if I were the one who lost?”
Helen snapped furiously, “Sasha, you’ve never meant well by having this bet right from the beginning.
While Liam has to lose his dignity by kneeling down and offering kowtows to apologize to Matthew if he
loses the bet, all you have to do is let Liam manage Wellness Herbary if you lose. You won’t suffer any
loss because the company is still an asset belonging to our family but Liam has to pay the price for
losing his dignity! See how forgiving and gracious Liam has been to you! How can you insist on making
him do such a thing?!”
Sasha went dumbfounded because she had never thought that her mother would actually make such a
nonsensical statement.
While her company was at stake in the bet, it was still nothing compared to Liam’s dignity in Helen’s
eyes.
You guys said nothing’s going to be different because the company is merely transferred within the
family. Do you guys think I have no idea what you guys have been thinking? If the company is really
transferred to the two of you, it will be seized by Liam and Demi any minute. Do I look like a fool to the
two of you?
However, Sasha did not voice even a single sentence of that out.
She knew very well that her parents had always favored Liam.
If she really said her thoughts aloud, her family would really be broken apart.
With a sharp intake of breath, Sasha said through gritted teeth, “Mom, please save your effort to make
it sound so noble because I believe all of us here have a very clear idea of what’s the truth! There’s
only one thing I want—Liam has to kneel down and offer kowtows to apologize to Matthew!”
Helen was so incensed that she was having difficulty trying to speak. “What have I done to have such
an unfilial daughter like you?!”
While Helen started stomping, patting her chest and wailing in tears, Demi put on a disgusted look and
exclaimed, “Sasha Cunningham, I finally realize who you really are! I’m deeply sickened by how you
behave now!”
Amidst their uproar, Sasha looked ominous but she was determined not to cave in.
This time, not only did she want to make sure what they promised in the bet was honored, what was
more important was she wanted to protect Matthew’s dignity.
Meanwhile, Matthew put on a frown. In fact, he didn’t care at all whether Liam did kneel down in front of
him or not.
However, since Liam had agreed to take the bet with his wife, he was not allowed to go back on his
promise!
Amidst the commotion, Matthew suddenly waved his hands and shouted, “Sasha, forget it! Since Liam
is unwilling to kneel down, don’t force him to do it!”
Liam looked elated at once. “Sasha, did you hear that? Since your husband has already said so,
there’s no reason for you to be so persistent.”
Sasha, who was annoyed, shot Matthew a glare and demanded, “Matthew, why are you being so kind
to him? He caused you so much trouble and made so many slanderous remarks about you. Why do
you want to spare him the punishment?”
Matthew chuckled and shook his head leisurely, “Sasha, I’m not interested in seeing him getting down
on his knees. By the way, my friend, Tiger, has already called the police. Defamation isn’t too big a
deal. Tiger will get his lawyer to represent me during the trial and by the time it happens, Liam will just
have to be sent to prison for several years. It’s nothing since his dignity is what matters the most to
him, isn’t it?”
As soon as he said that, Helen and the rest looked shaken at once.
While Liam became so terror-stricken that his whole body was trembling, his wife said anxiously,
“Matthew, d-don’t you bring this too far! What did my husband say that made up to defamation on you?
D-Do you have any proof?”
Matthew chuckled softly and said, “Oh, I’ve forgotten to tell you about this—I switched on the voice
recorder when he made that slanderous remark about me that day.”
Both Liam and Demi were left stupefied at once.
Helen asked apprehensively, “We’re a family. Mathew, do you really need to do that?”
Looking unruffled, Matthew explained, “Mom, it’s no use persuading me because it’s Tiger who called
the police. Some friends of mine just couldn’t help but take actions because they couldn’t stand me
suffering such an injustice. If you aren’t happy with what Tiger did, you may visit him and confront him
yourself!”
Helen’s face turned pale at once. Just the thought of how Tiger had dealt with Jacob and the rest last
time was enough to send her a gust of fear.
There was no doubt she would not have the guts to visit Tiger!
Sasha laughed out loud immediately. “I see! Very well, I won’t ask him to get down on his knees again.
Liam, remember not to kneel down and apologize to Matthew!”
Colors drained from Liam’s face as he pleaded in a trembling voice, “Matthew, we’re a family. D-Do you Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
really need to do that?”
Matthew drawled, “A family? Did you think of that when you were trying to get me killed?! Liam, I’ll give
you two choices right now—either you get down on your knees and apologize to me or you will be sent
to jail. Make the choice yourself!”
Demi freaked out when she heard him. “Matthew, d-do you really have to be so harsh?!”
Matthew first glimpsed at her before answering her with each and every word sounding crisp and clear,
“I can be even harsher. Do you want to have a taste of it?”
